About Suzanne
Suzanne DePasquale is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 18 years of experience practicing in Florida. She focuses on relationship and family concerns, grief, compassion fatigue, ADHD, stress and anxiety, LGBT issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related problems, parenting and anger. Suzanne works with people facing big life shifts and emotional strain and helps them sort through what’s happening now.
Her approach is practical and skill-focused, using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and client-centered work. She helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, test small changes, and build routines that reduce stress. Sessions include direct conversation about patterns and step-by-step strategies to try between meetings.
Suzanne also brings methods from the Gottman Method and mindfulness practices when relationship skills and present-moment awareness are useful. She uses these tools to address communication problems, intimacy issues, and recurring conflict. The work often involves straightforward skill practice rather than long abstract discussion.
Her background includes support for people dealing with abandonment wounds, aging and geriatric concerns, autism spectrum issues, blended family challenges, cancer caregiving, hospice and end-of-life matters, and HIV/AIDS related stress. She also addresses domestic violence histories, infidelity, narcissistic relationship patterns, and divorce and separation difficulties.
Sessions are offered in English and Suzanne accepts international clients. Cost varies with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, the reader is asked to use the site’s matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify values and take small committed actions even when feelings are difficult. It can be useful for stress, anxiety, grief, and compassion fatigue by shifting focus from avoiding feelings to purposeful behavior.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing alternative responses. It is often used for anxiety, ADHD-related worry, anger, and patterns that keep relationship problems repeating.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a collaborative, non-directive stance where the therapist listens and reflects to help clients make sense of their own goals. This approach supports people who need time to explore what matters before trying active skills work.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss which methods fit a person’s needs, goals, and preferences and will adjust the plan together over time.
The biography does not specify particular session formats, so confirm which online options are offered before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people choose quieter surroundings or skip being on camera when that helps them engage.
